been charged and the fuse OF one was
lighted and they stepped To a place OF
safety until the blast went off, when they
proceeded Co light the fuse to the other
charge, and while they were searching for
the fuse the second explosion took place.
The only cause assigned for the last
charge 60 explode is, that the fire from
the first hole ignited the fuse GO thesecond
